Along the same lines, how does one find out the super-class so that one can
access the super class-pool variables without explicitly stateing the name of
the super class.  I recently had to do this and I couldn't figure out how to do
this without hard-wireing the name of the super-class.  

The message;
super class 
is the same as;
self class.
